Visitors Tottenham, meanwhile, are unsurprisingly unchanged from the side that thrashed Newcastle 5-1 last weekend.
Sergio Reguilon and Ryan Sessegnon both return from injury to be named among Antonio Conte’s substitutes at Villa Park.
Tottenham XI: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Emerson Royal, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Doherty, Kulusevski, Son, Kane.
Subs: Gollini, Reguilon, Sanchez, Rodon, Sessegnon, Winks, White, Moura, Bergwijn.
